The anglomaniac of the present day can

paper of 1902, contributes receipt for max

excerpts: "When you are fatigued with walk

much consequence, and will only tend tc

fertile imagination. 1t will be necessary
before you talk about London, Paris OF other
populous cities to get acquainted with the

Twill the coming man read booksfs is the
startling question that Henry Holt, one of
the leading book publishers of the land, pro-
pounds in The Writer. He is led to it by re-
Election on the fact that there has been re.
markable falling off in the sales of bound
volumes in the last ten years. in novels,
poems, travels, essays, histories, biogra-
phies,n he says, ''the publishers find that
they can, as a rule, place but about one
third as many copies of new hound book as
they could ten years ago" The query comes,
il the sale diminishes one-third in ten years,
how long will it take for extinction2 Surely
here is food for most serious reflection Was
there ever such a sociologic revolution in the
history of the civilized world as this will be if
it eliminates in the disappearance of the
bookl For the book has been the chief factor
in the history of the worlds mind, the library
has been the most potent element for good in
the life of the home, and the book writer the
most revered and most influential of man
kind. If, as Mr. Holt believes, the change is
largely due to the great development of news
